About the provider
I hope to help students who want to help others. I didn’t have much growing up myself and I still don’t. The only wealth I’ve really had was the love for and from my kids, wife and family. And to lose one of my kids and my niece almost broke me. But I want nothing more than to have my daughters memory live on by helping like minded young adults financially through a new chapter in there life.
